let ABCD be the given parallelogram area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 x (area of triangle ABC) now a = 30m, b = 14m and c = 40m s=1/2 x (30+14+40) = 42 Area of triangle ABC = s s - a s - b s - c = 42 12 28 2 = 168sq m area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 x 168 = 336 sq m
Cross section area = 1/2 x ( a + b ) x d where a and b are the parallel sides, d is the perpendicular distance between them.? 1/2 x ( a + b ) x d = 640? d = (640 x 2) / 16 = 80m
